If you lay-off over 100 employees, with most being anchors and reporters, you're not doing too well.

As annoying as I find ESPN these days, I'd have to say they're wildly successful. They still hold an enormous share of the sports programming market and are one of the most instantly recognizable brand names, despite awful programming and questionable personnel decisions. If anything kind of drives the point home of how successful the network is

I don't know...I hate the Blues with a burning passion, and I know that I'm in the minority with this, but the jerseys that they wore with Oates/Hull/Shanahan/Joseph in the early 90's were the best they've looked to my eyes.

Former Bundesliga champion now relegated (TWICE) this year. First for losing the relegation playoff after finishing 2. Bundesliga in 16th place, and relegated further for failing to pay for the 3. Liga license.

The dotcom boom is full of logos of failure from tech companies that went under. When Gateway tried to rebrand and lost the cow imagery, it was all over for them. (Rebranded in '02, dead in '07)

And in sports, the Cleveland Cavaliers have two great periods of success: the Daugherty/Price era and of course, today where Cleveland's economy is based on LeBron James. However, in the middle they had a terrible logo and some pretty terrible teams.
